Bowling Green Weather Update

Real Time Bowling Green Weather Radar:


 

Today 10/22 – Mostly Sunny – High 67° / Tonight – Mostly Clear – Low 38°

High pressure located to the north of the region will continue to dominate the weather for the time being. With a substantial lack of appreciable moisture in the atmosphere, I do not expect much in the way of cloud cover for today. Yesterday, the models preformed poorly in regard to the high temperature for the area. Model consensus was that the high would be in the mid 60s, however the high in Bowling Green was just shy of 70°. Thus, I’ll adjust today’s forecast high temperatures a bit warmer than the models. Bottom line: expect a high around 67°. Awesome, right?

Tonight, mostly clear skies will once again allow those temperatures to bottom out despite the warm daytime temperatures. Expect lows to be in the upper 30s.

Thursday 10/23 – Mostly Sunny – High 65° / Thur Night – Partly Cloudy – Low 42°

We’ll see a bit of a break in the upper level ridging pattern as a weak shortwave trough intrudes the area. This feature appears to be pretty weak in the low to mid level portions of the atmosphere, thus we don’t expect this to have much of an impact on Bowling Green weather conditions. A few more clouds may show up on Thursday but that’s about it. Highs will remain in the mid 60s. Circled below is the shortwave mentioned above.

Thursday night will bring a few more clouds to the region in response to the aforementioned shortwave trough. Lows will be in the low to mid 40s.

Friday 10/24 – Partly Cloudy  -High 72° / Fri Night – Mostly Clear – Low 51°

A few clouds will remain possible as a weak disturbance moves through the region on Friday morning. A few light sprinkles may also be possible on Friday morning. As the disturbance pushes to the east of the region, moisture will begin to get depleted once again. Skies should begin clearing once more in the afternoon hours. Highs will be in the low 70s. It’s Friday, be sure to get outdoors so this doesn’t happen.

Conditions should clear off during the overnight hours. Lows will be in the low 50s.
